connector. Hardware function overrides processor control

Demodulator Specifications

IF Input Range

P300: -45dBm nominal, ±15dB (desired carrier)
P310: -20 to -70dBm (desired carrier)

Maximum Composite Signal

P300: 30dB above level of desired input up to a maximum of 0dBm
P310: 35dB above level of desired input up to a maximum of -10dBm

Frequency Acquisition

Selectable from ± 1 kHz to ± 32 kHz

Range

Acquisition Threshold

< 5dB Eb/No

Acquisition Time

@ 9.6 kbps < 3 seconds at 6dB Eb/No

(rate ½ FEC)

@ 64 kbps < 2 seconds at 6dB Eb/No
@ 2048 kbps < 500 ms at 6dB Eb/No

Clock Tracking Range

± 100 ppm min

Receive Filtering

6th order Butterworth, group delay equalised (INTELSAT IESS compliant)

BER Performance

In all cases met in the presence of two adjacent carriers each 10dB

higher than the desired carrier, with V.35 scrambling

These figures meet or exceed the relevant IESS performance
specifications.
